This section provides a comprehensive list of software development tools and integrated development environments (IDE), both hosted and downloadable tools, used for software programming.
CodePen is a playground for the front end side of the web. It’s all about inspiration, education, and sharing. HTML, CSS, and Javascript in an easy to share environment to try out ideas and get ideas. Also check out JSFiddle and FiddleSalad entries below.
This open source IDE also has a paid version with commercial support, Zend Studio. And Eclipse IDT is not to be confused with PHPEclipse, an open source PHP IDE project.
Microsoft's Expression includes an excellent debugger for Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 web browsers which is useful for html email (for older mail software like AOL that uses the Microsoft HTML rendering engine) and web pages.
Software development in an online environment with lots of social activity. It’s StackExchange + Facebook + Cloud9 + Virtual Machines + a few other things. It’s a great idea and worth a try.
Both for Mac, Text Wrangler is free and comparable to Crimson Editor on Windows and Notepad++. BBEdit is comparable to Visual Studio and other IDEd for software and web development.
The Internet of Things (IoT) connects dumb devices like refrigerators to the internet and uses software to connect them to our daily lives.
Can a car talk to a house? In the future, your car might tell your house that you are five miles away and please turn on the lights and warm up the house.
This is an example of an idea called the “Internet of Things” or IoT. Because wi-fi networks have become so common, dumb objects like refrigerators, washing machines, and cars can include internet access with software to make use of the internet connection.
For example, if you scanned in your groceries as you put them in the refrigerator, and pulled them out for use, each item could tell the refrigerator what it was, its expiration date, and other useful information. The refrigerator could collect and organize this information to send you. You might get emails with recipe ideas, for example, based on what food you have. Or an email with a grocery shopping list.
In the bigger less personal world, imagine water and gas pipes that notified your town when they had a leak. Or sensors in the woods that notified firefighters of a fire.
Researchers believe by 2020 there will be over 26 billion devices connected to the internet. Some estimate the number will be much higher, 100 billion.
The internet of things has at least these elements:
Sensors to detects inputs from the world around them.
Software to look at sensor data then follow rules to make decisions about how to respond to data.
Software to manage the operation of a device which includes one or more sensors.
An internet connection to transmit and receive data and instructions from other devices.
For example, your refrigerator might have:
A barcode scanner (sensor) to scan all food you put into it.
Software to evaluate scanner data about food stored in the refrigerator and make decisions about expiration dates, recipes, shopping lists, and other useful tasks to save you time.
A basic operating system to run the barcode scanner and the software evaluating data from the scanner.
An internet connection to help the software evaluate data and follow rules to make decisions about the barcode scanner data. For example, the refrigerator might use the internet to look up recipes or email you a shopping list based on when food expires.
To communicate, every device will need its own unique address the same way every web site has its own unique address, or URL. Now imagine someone has the unique address for your refrigerator and knows how to make the software in your refrigerator turn itself off, as a prank. Lately we have seen how software in cars can be hacked. The Internet of Things has the same security problems to solve.
Years ago, people joked home automation meant you had to reboot your house (or car) if the software crashed. Today operating systems are more stable. Google is working on Brillo, its second version of an operating system designed for objects. Microsoft, Apple, mbed, and other companies are adapting or creating operating systems and software to make dumb objects smart and interactive.
The biggest issues with billions of objects connected to the internet is security and privacy.
For example, the Nest thermostat knows when you are in a room or not. On a hot day, the Nest thermostat might keep your place cool if you are at home. If you’re not at home, Nest might keep the temperature warmer. Information about whether or not you are home, and what days and times you have been at home, also is useful for burglars, or the police. Whether or not you have control over data collected by Nest determines how much privacy you have (or don’t have) about your daily life.
The Internet of Things has the potential to make our lives much simpler, especially the routine parts like food shopping, groceries, and calendars. But it would need to be easily controlled by each of us, and secure, to be truly useful.
From containers to NoSQL to Spark, here are the IT trends you can expect to persist next year
[ The art of programming is changing rapidly. We help you navigate what’s hot in programming and what’s going cold and give insights into the technologies that are changing how developers work. Keep up with hot topics in programming with InfoWorld’s Application Development newsletter. ]
Developer trend No. 1: Containers will rule the world
Docker will continue to develop, gain security features, and add various forms of governance so that you are unable to pull down a tree of containers that depend on pnwd.com. Emulating an entire machine on top of a machine was fundamentally a wasteful idea. Solaris zones were a good idea; Solaris zones on Linux with a packaging format are an even better idea. Add dependencies, and you’re on fire.
Developer trend No. 2: The EMC/Dell merger will be a debacle
Big mergers almost never really work out, so grade this prediction on a curve. The merger probably won’t be “finished” in 2016.
Acquiring EMC doesn’t make much sense if you’re trying to transition your hardware company into a cloud company or if your sweet spot is the mid-market. The only way this works out is if you really push, don’t care about short-term devaluation or losses, hold onto the sales team (somehow), and use those relationships to push your cloud. The trouble is you have to do that at the expense of EMC’s storage business and your server business. Novell failed at this royally, as anything, it sold in its new product line melted the legacy.
Dell paid an imperial corruption of money for EMC and can’t afford that kind of scorched-earth, bridge-over-the-rubicon strategy of no turning back. You can’t perpetuate the past and bring the future. Wired’s “walking dead” article had great analysis and imagery. Nonetheless, I expect more legacy mergers next year.
Developer trend No. 3: NoSQL databases will take hold
“NoSQL” is a loser of a brand. I’d go with “highly scalable” or “cloud-ready.” With big corporate accounts like Marriott saying they did NoSQL to go to the cloud, that’s where you need to focus. Push it, go further. I think the message is out there — and I expect 2016 to be the year when a lot of big brick-and-mortar companies publicly adopt NoSQL for critical operations.
Developer trend No. 4: Spark, Spark, Spark
Quite simply you can count on a whole lot more of Spark. The spark will stream, analyze, and enter the popular imagination. With Cloudera throws its whole weight behind Spark and other vendors looking to jump on the next wave of big data, you can almost guarantee Spark will be everything it’s cracked up to be.
Developer trend No. 5: Real-time everything
Not only real-time analytics, but real-time everything. This will start in earnest in 2016, but the trend will take years to play out. It involves changing not only your business, but your relationship with your suppliers, your customers, and everyone else. This will be one of the first truly meaningful productivity gains in the U.S. economy in more than a decade. It will change all sectors from finance to retail and manufacturing. It’s a change driven by technology — but it will cause a fundamental shift in the way business works.
Developer trend No. 6: ETL will continue to be the silent killer
It really doesn’t matter what we’re talking about. It could be a project or you simply want to add a technology to your stack — but getting the data there and in the correct form is like 80 percent of the cost? Until ETL becomes less of a pain, it’s a drag on anything new. Sadly, “ETL” isn’t a attractive marketing term, so don’t expect great improvements in this area.
Developer trend No. 7: “Self-service” will be 2016’s keyword
“Self-service” can refer to how users interact with technology — or how customers interact with a company. The old IT mantra, “says no first until someone makes us,” doesn’t work anymore. The best companies will build cultures of performance and doing the right thing — and will make data and the processes around it self-service for all their employees. Users may bring their own devices or subscribe to cloud services, but if they can’t make it work without an onerous bureaucracy, then they won’t be productive. Self-service isn’t only a nice-to-have, it’s the only way scale can be managed without dragging down productivity.
Developer trend No. 8: Management of big data, and container farms
This will start to be a real discussion. Vendors are starting to claim to do it. There are even a few that do. Until now Docker has been tire-kicking, used in production by the early-adopter crowd only. You should expect to hear a lot more conversations around “governance,” “management,” and “monitoring” of all this stuff. Don’t expect too many solutions until the latter part of 2016. It’s still early.
The Linux based operating system is more than twice as popular on the Amazon cloud as all other operating systems combined.
Linux continues to be the ruler of the cloud ecosystem. According to the latest analysis of operating systems on the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), done by The Cloud Market, Ubuntu Linux is more than twice as popular on Amazon Cloud as all the other operating systems combined.
The survey revealed that Ubuntu has about 135,000 instances, followed by Amazon’s own Amazon Linux Amazon Machine Image (AMI), that has 54,000 instances. Windows, however, lags far behind with 17,600 instances, followed by CentOS (8500), and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) (5600) in fourth and fifth places.
It should be noted that RightScale’s latest report titled ‘State of the Cloud’ states that Amazon Web Services is the ruler of the public cloud domain with a whopping 57 per cent share. AWS is followed by Azure Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) with 12 percent. With a major share on AWS, Ubuntu is, undoubtedly, the most popular OS on cloud.
Ubuntu is also available on HP Cloud and Microsoft Azure since 2013. Ubuntu Linux is also available on other cloud platforms including Fujitsu, Joyent and Google Cloud Platform.
Canonical, the maker of Ubuntu, is also backing OpenStack in the hybrid and private cloud efforts. The company is also working with Microsoft and Oracle to bring Windows server and Oracle Linux Ubuntu take on OpenStack.

Technology is one area that no one in any industry can afford to grow
complacent about — tech is changing so quickly that skills you mastered
last year may already be outdated.
In such a quickly evolving
industry, information decays at a rate of 30% a year, according to
Research in Labor Economics, rendering nearly a third of last year's
tech-related knowledge irrelevant.
But don't panic — there's a
solution. Staying up-to-date with emergent technologies and trends — as
well as the skills needed to master them — will help you offset the
lightning-fast pace of skills disruption and keep you ahead of the
curve. Continuous learning is the key to maintaining an ongoing
competitive advantage, both for individuals and organizations.
On
that note, here are the top six tech skills that Pluralsight has
identified as not just "nice to know," but "need to know," in 2015:
1. Coding
Coding is the number-one skill in demand today worldwide. Although
coding and computer science are still marginalized in the K-12 education
system, it's clear that the ability to code has become as important as
other basic forms of literacy like reading and math.
Fortunately, no matter what your age or current comfort level with
technology, there are ways to pick up intro coding skills — and many of
them are free.
2. Big data
According to Forbes, big data will continue to grow in 2015, due in part
to the rise of the Internet of Things, which has the power to embed
technology in practically anything.
As ever-larger volumes of data are created, it's vital to know how to
collect and analyze that data — particularly when it's related to
customer preferences and business processes.
No matter what industry you're in, you'll miss out on key marketing and decision-making opportunities by ignoring big data.
3. Cloud computing
TechRadar had reported that 2015 will be the year that the cloud becomes
the "new normal." The reason, writes Mark Barrenechea, CEO of OpenText,
is that costs can be slashed as much as 90% through digitization of
information-intensive processes.
Barrenechea predicts that by year-end, we'll see "a world of hybrid
deployments in which some information and applications reside in the
cloud and the remainder resides on-premise."
Learning to utilize the cloud's flexible power can improve everything from your data security to your collaboration ability.
4. Mobile
As Six Dimensions states, "If you don't have a mobile strategy, you
don't have a future strategy." This has never been truer than in 2015,
the year in which an increasing number of companies will learn how to
mobilize their revenue-generating processes, like making purchases and
depositing checks, according to The Guardian.
2015 is also the year that we'll hit critical mass with the fusion of
mobile and cloud computing, according to Forbes. That means many more
centrally coordinated apps will be usable on multiple devices.
5. Data visualization
Data keeps multiplying, which means whatever message you hope to
communicate online must find increasingly creative ways to break through
the noise. That's where data visualization comes in, which involves
using a visual representation of the data to discover new information
and breakthroughs.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a web designer or developer to create
compelling infographics. There are several free tools available you can
use to visually enhance your data.
6. UX design skills
User experience (UX) designers consider the end user's ease of use,
efficiency, and general experience of interfacing with a system (such as
a website or application).
Smashing Magazine notes that while user experience has long been
important, it has become more so recently in relation to the diverse
ways that users can now access websites, including mobile and apps.
"The more complex the system, the more involved will the planning and
architecture have to be for it," writes Jacob Gube. But it's not just
professional designers who can benefit from understanding UX design —
anyone can.
We are glad to inform you that we are organizing a free workshop on WEB APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT on coming Sunday 04.10.2015 at YOTTA EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH INSTITUTE, Arni.The workshop will start at 09.00 am.
Web Applications
With the ubiquity of Web browsers and Web document formats across a
range of platforms and devices, many developers are using the
Web as a platform-independent application environment.
Examples of Web applications include reservation systems,
online shopping or auction sites, games, multimedia applications, calendars, maps, chat
applications, clocks, interactive design applications, stock tickers,
currency converters and data entry/display systems.
Over the past several years a number of different technologies
have targeted application development on the Web.
However, much of the work in this area has been proprietary and platform
specific.
Web applications typically have some form of programmatic control,
either on the client, on the server or a combination of both. This workshop addresses client-side Web applications only. They
may run within the browser, or within another host application.
A Web application is typically downloaded
on demand each time it is "executed", allowing a developer to update
the application for all users when needed. Web applications are
usually smaller than regular desktop applications, and can have
rich graphical interactive interfaces.
Although the Workshop is public, it is restricted to approximately 30 seats. Therefore we encourage you to register before 03.10.2015. For more info reach us through :

A free half-day Seminar on “Hadoop and Big Data Analytics“ was organized on 20 September 2015 by Yotta Educational And Research Institute. The presentation involved all aspect of Big Data and its related tool Hadoop.
The amount of data in the world has exploded during the last decade. This has
lead to setting where the
traditional methods and tools are not anymore suitable for capturing,
curating, managing, and processing data
whose volume exceeds terabytes.
Therefore, new approaches has been developed to cope
with big data.
One of the most prominent framework for processing big data is
Apache Hadoop, which
is developed for distributed processing of large data sets across
clusters of computers.
A fairly in-depth look at Apache Hadoop and related technologies and also some of the other commercial platforms, architecture
and services available out there - through useful case studies from a
variety of industry sectors helped student to gain a good understanding of how to tackle the ever-increasing wave of Data.
